Sports institutions bless Pedro Rocha as future president of the RFEF despite the scandals surrounding him. FIFA will not intervene in the federation, for now, and the Extremaduran leader is the favorite to win the elections on May 6.

The deadline for submitting the 21 necessary endorsements to qualify for the presidency of the Royal Spanish Football Federation closes on Thursday. If this is so, on Friday, April 12, he would be president without the need for elections to be held. If the sports court opened a file against him, the CSD would have a hot potato because it would have to decide whether or not to call its board of directors to provisionally suspend him since it was a very serious offense.
